Assessment of the BodyGuardian Remote Monitoring Platform in Elderly Healthy Subjects

The remote health management system connects personal health sensors with secure mobile communication devices. It is also able to give immediate feedback to the user. The solution is a multi-tiered mobile health platform. The front-end includes an adhesive snap-strip body sensor (BodyGuardian) that can measure HR, ECG, respiration rate (RR), and activity which is FDA approved for detection of non-lethal cardiac arrhythmias. It can wirelessly communicate with off-body sensors such as a BP cuff and scale to incorporate BP and weight data based on automated algorithms and can solicit symptoms from the user. It can also be used as an event recorder inputting symptoms and recording simultaneous physiologic data.
